Were looking forward to a second season offering more fascinating stories inspired by historical events. The effort from everyone involved, including the producers, directors, historical consultants, actors and PBS stations, resulted in an extraordinary series that exemplifies PBS world class programming. MERCY STREETs first season took place in the spring of 1. Alexandria, Virginia, a border town between North and South and the longest occupied Confederate city of the war. Ruled under martial law, Alexandria was the central melting pot of the region, filled with civilians, female volunteers, doctors, wounded soldiers from both sides, free blacks, enslaved and contraband escaped slaves living behind Union lines African Americans, prostitutes, speculators and spies. MERCY STREET follows the lives of all of these characters, who collide at Mansion House, the Green familys luxury hotel, which has been taken over and transformed into a Union Army hospital. Season two picks up directly from the dramatic events at the end of the season one finale, continuing to explore the growing chaos within Alexandria, the complicated interpersonal dynamics of Dr. Foster, Nurse Mary and the Mansion House staff, the increasingly precarious position of the Green family and the changing predicament of the burgeoning black population. The season will introduce a number of new elements, taking us closer to the fight and into the halls of Confederate power, all set against the intensifying war, starting with the Seven Days Battle and culminating with Antietam. It has been a privilege for all of us on MERCY STREET to be able to tell these stories at the intersection of drama and history, and we are thrilled to have the opportunity to build on what weve already done, said co creator and executive producer David Zabel. The quality entertainment and educational value that MERCY STREET provides have made the show a perfect fit for PBS, and were elated that the first season has resonated with its audience. The success of season one of MERCY STREET proves how captivating this series is and how viewers have identified and connected with the characters lives, even during a much different time in our nations history said executive producer David W. Zucker. We are looking forward to continuing to expand on these important themes with the next season. Several years ago, I went searching for a fresh take on the Civil War and stumbled on the world of Union occupied Alexandria, Virginia, said co creator and executive producer Lisa Q. Wolfinger. The history inspired us to create a complex ensemble drama about life on the home front told from multiple points of view women, African Americans, doctors and civilians. This wasnt easy or glamorous history it wasnt about battles and glory this was challenging material rife with provocative themes and fully three dimensional and often flawed characters. In so many ways, PBS was the perfect fit for us. The fact that MERCY STREET has been so well received by PBS audiences is exhilarating. We are looking forward to season two and the opportunity to expand our storylines while digging deeper into this pivotal time in American history. The ensemble cast for season two of MERCY STREET includes Mary Elizabeth Winstead The Returned, The Spectacular Now as nurse Mary Phinney, Josh Radnor How I Met Your Mother, Liberal Arts, Broadways Disgraced as Dr. Jedediah Foster, Gary Cole Veep, The Good Wife, Entourage as James Green, Sr., Hannah James as Emma Green, Brad Koed Jr. James Green, Jr., Norbert Leo Butz Bloodline as Dr. Byron Hale, Tara Summers Youre the Worst, Rake, Boston Legal as nurse Anne Hastings, Mc. Kinley Belcher III Show Me a Hero, Chicago PD as Samuel Diggs, Jack Falahee How to Get Away With Murder as Frank Stringfellow, Anna. Sophia Robb The Carrie Diaries, The Way, Way Back, Bridge to Terabithia as Alice Green, Donna Murphy Resurrection, Hindsight, Broadways Passion and The King and I as Jane Green, Suzanne Bertish Rome as Hospital Matron Brannan, and Luke Macfarlane Brothers and Sisters, Over There as Chaplain Hopkins. I am so pleased that MERCY STREET has already had such tremendous success and will be returning to Virginia to film season two, said Governor Terry Mc. Auliffe. This outstanding show is a great illustration of the enormous opportunities Virginia offers to film and television producers and to tourists who enjoy history and natural beauty. I hope everyone will continue to support MERCY STREET and take advantage of our many exceptional Civil War sites and attractions, particularly those in Alexandria, where the original story of MERCY STREET took place, and in Central Virginia where the PBS series is filmed. To ensure historical accuracy of the first season, the producers engaged a team of advisors headed by noted historian Dr. James M. Jim Mc. Pherson and including leading experts on Civil War medicine, military history, African American history, women in the Civil War era and more.
